Episode Summary: In this episode I try to untangle my mind around what dressage is, and reconcile the dressage I do with the sport of dressage. In the end, it’s about taking back the term dressage.  About the Host:  Karen Rohlf, author and creator of Dressage Naturally, is an internationally recognized clinician who is changing the equestrian educational paradigm. She teaches students of all disciplines and levels from around the world in her clinics and the Dressage Naturally virtual programs.  Karen is well known for training horses with a priority on partnership, a student-empowering approach to teaching, and a positive and balanced point of view.
